Frequently Asked Questions

No. We are an editorial review and comparison website. We do not accept registrations, deposits or bets. To play, you always register directly on the licensed operator's own website.

We verify every brand directly against the SRIJ's public list of licensed entities, including the licence number and the authorised game type, and we show the date of the last check on every page.

At our last check, the SRIJ register listed 19 licensed entities holding 35 licences in total across fixed-odds sports betting and games of chance. The full list is on the SRIJ Licences page.

Yes, through affiliate arrangements with some licensed operators, identified on the Disclosure page. We may earn a commission when you register through our links. This does not influence the score or the critical content of a review.

18. All SRIJ-licensed operators must verify players' age and identity before allowing withdrawals, and this website is intended exclusively for persons aged 18 or over.

At SRIJ-licensed operators, the tax (Special Online Gambling Tax) is paid by the operator on its revenue, and prizes paid to players are not subject to personal income tax. At unlicensed operators the situation is different and the player has no protection. If in doubt, consult the Tax Authority.

We only assign a score after completing the full review (account test, payments, customer support and terms). Until then we publish only the verified licensing data, labelled "licence verified".

Call ICAD's 1414 line, free, anonymous and confidential, Monday to Friday between 10:00 and 18:00, or talk to your family doctor. You can also request self-exclusion at the SRIJ, which blocks access to every licensed operator.

Yes. Licences are valid for three years and are renewed, amended or, in some cases, suspended at the operator's own request. We always recommend confirming on the official SRIJ register, linked from every review.

If the website does not end in .pt, shows no SRIJ licence number in its footer, accepts cryptocurrencies or promises guaranteed wins, it is not licensed in Portugal. Do not register and, if you wish, report it to the SRIJ.
